4.5 Greenhouse Gas Reporting Requirements. (a) For the purpose of demonstrating compliance with g reenhouse gas requirements, the manufacturer shall provide by May 1 of the calendar year following the close of the model year:

(i) a comprehensive list of all emission test resul ts, including the test vehicle description and identification number, CO 2 , CH 4 , and N 2 O emission data, the data and/or justifications used to determine th e “worst case” greenhouse gas test vehicle configuration, as required by G.2.3.2, for each greenhouse gas vehicle test group. A manufacturer shall not submit any em ission test results from vehicles tested, or calculated results, as part of the Corporate Average Fuel Economy Program, unless those results have been jud ged acceptable by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, in accordance with §600.007-08. A manufacturer that submits data from the Corporate A verage Fuel Economy Program must clearly indicate whether the data is d erived from vehicle testing or

whether it is calculated. A manufacturer that elec ts to use CAFE Program emissions data to demonstrate compliance with the g reenhouse requirements must use all of the data that is used by the U.S. Enviro nmental Protection Agency to determine a manufacturer’s corporate average fuel e conomy for the applicable model year, and may forego testing of the “worst-ca se” configuration; (ii) a description of each air conditioning system and all data used to

calculate the A/C Direct Emissions Allowance in sub section E.2.5.2.1.2 and the

A/C Indirect Emissions Allowance in subsection E.2. 5.2.1.3; (iii) for vehicles certifying using the optional al ternative compliance mechanisms in subsection E.2.5.2.2.1, all data requ ired therein;Date of Release: September 24, 2009; 15-Day Notice version
